Seven sucrose esters, physakengoses K-Q (1-7) were isolated from the aerial parts of Physalis alkekengi var. franchetii. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses and chemical methods. These new compounds were tested for their antimicrobial abilities against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli. Among the isolated sucrose esters, compounds 1-5 showed potent antibacterial activity with MIC values ranging from 2.16 to 12.76 μg/mL.

Enzymatic modification of dihydromyricetin by glucosylation and acylation, and its effect on the solubility and antioxidant activity.

Article Synopsis
- Dihydromyricetin has great pharmaceutical potential but is limited by poor solubility and stability, prompting the synthesis of glucosides to enhance its bioavailability.
- Through the use of a specific sucrose phosphorylase variant, researchers developed three monoglucosides, with dihydromyricetin 4'--α-D-glucopyranoside being the most prevalent.
- Acylation of this monoglucoside created three novel derivatives, and studies showed that modifications in their structure impacted both water solubility and antioxidant activity.
Effects of oligosaccharides, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and d-allulose as a compound improver on the quality of sugar-reduced bread.

Background: Growing public concern over the health risks of high-sugar diets has led to a consensus on the necessity of sugar reduction. This research evaluated the effects of oligosaccharides (OS), sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMCNa) and d-allulose as a compound improver on the quality of sugar-reduced bread, aiming to assess the feasibility of substantial sucrose reduction at the same time as maintaining desirable bread characteristics.
Results: Compared to bread with a 90% sugar reduction, the improved formulation increased specific volume by 50.
Antibacterial activity of withanolides, labdane glucosides, flavonoids and other constituents from two populations of Physalis patula.

Facultad de Ciencias Naturales, Universidad Autónoma de Querétaro, Col. Juriquilla 76230, Querétaro, Qro., Mexico. Electronic address:
Two populations of Physalis patula Miller collected in different localities (Querétaro and Teotihuacán) of Central México were analyzed. Eight new compounds including three withanolides, physapatolides A-C (1-3), two labdanes, 12-epi-physacoztomatin (10) and physapatulone (12), besides three 12-O-glucosyl labdanes, patulosides A-C (13-15), were isolated from these collections. A series of known withanolides, flavonoids, labdanes, sucrose esters, and sterols were also isolated.

Rebaudioside M2 (RebM2) is characterized as 13-[(2--β-d-glucopyranosyl-3--β-d-glucopyranosyl-β-d-glucopyranosyl)oxy] ent-kaur-16-en-19-oic acid-[(2--β-d-glucopyranosyl-6--β-d-glucopyranosyl-β-d-glucopyranosyl) ester], an isomer of rebaudioside M with a 1 → 6 sugar linkage. The product was found in the biotransformation of rebaudioside D (RebD) catalyzed by a glycosyltransferase from (UGT). Herein, guided by consensus engineering and molecular dynamics simulations, a variant UGT with enhanced activity and thermostability was obtained.

Anhydrous milk fat (AMF) is a flavorful, but particularly complex fat containing a wide variety of fatty acids (FAs) and triglycerides (TGs), resulting in an extended melting range of -40 °C to 40 °C. The functionality of this fat can be steered by the addition of sucrose esters (SEs). In this study, the crystallization behavior of AMF in the presence of a stearic-palmitic SE was assessed.
